2 5055 Data Collection PC Recovery Instructions
"
NOTE: These instructions are tied to the 5055 Toolkit V3.0: Windows NT P/N: 235-027-001
Windows 95 P/N: 235-028-001
The 5055 Toolkit V3.0 CDĆROM is used to restore the main partition and recovery partition
on a 5055 Data Collection PC.
The UPDATE.BAT batch file displays menus and does most of the recovery process. This
file can also be located in an \Update" server folder, shared between the 5055 PC and the
server. For example, C:\5055base\Update" is the directory structure that runs the
RUNME.BAT file off the CDĆROM.
"
NOTE: If the 5055 PC does not have a recovery partition, see the “5055 Data Collection PC Technical
Reference” P/N: 978-054-002 for legacy update instructions.
Server (Personal Computer)
The server must have the following before Windows 95 or NT 4.0 can be restored on the
5055 PC: a 10BaseĆT connection to a NetBEUI Network, any version of Windows 95, 98,
NT 4.0, or 2000, and enabled file/print sharing.
The RUNME.BAT file from the toolkit CDĆROM creates a Recovery Partition" within a
folder on the server. This folder can be customized to suit specific needs.
1. Insert this CDĆROM in a computer connected to the network and share its CDĆROM
drive with the name: CDROM.
2. From the Windows desktop, select Start Run, type D:\runme.bat, then click OK
to run the installation wizard. D:\ is the CDĆROM drive in this example.
See the 5055 PC Technical Reference" for instructions to enable file/print sharing (Windows
95), share the CDĆROM drive, or install the contents of the Toolkit CDĆROM.
Client (5055 PC)

tion to a NetBEUI Network, and an attached PS/2 keyboard before doing this recovery.

periods. For example: type 225 255 255 0 instead of 255.255.255.0 for the default gateway.

\\MYPC\IMAGES.
5. Type the name of the PQI file to be restored. If this file is in a folder below the shared
folder, type the path. For example, if the root of the CDĆROM drive is shared and the
NT_V30.PQI file is in the Images" folder, then type: IMAGES\NT_V30.PQI
"
NOTE: The default PQI file names will change for each version of the released toolkits. For example:
NT_V31.PQI or W95_V31.PQI.
